Is there a way to use Google App Script to change from one slide to another in a presentation while editing it?

  • There are no onClick event objects in the list [here](https://developers.google.com/apps-script/guides/triggers/events#google_slides_events) in the Slides section of the event objects documentation. So I'd say no. – Cooper Feb 18 '20 at 01:14

Unfortunately what you want cannot be achieved because there are no onEdit() triggers available for Google Slides. The only types of triggers available are:

  • onOpen() triggers;

  • onInstall() triggers;

  • time-driven triggers;

What you can do instead is to file a Feature Request on Issue Tracker here and provide all the necessary details.

  • I am wondering if there is a way to allow javascript in the side panel html to update the hash in the browser URL? Is there a way to flag the sandbox to allow-top-navigation ? Currently, I get the following error when trying this: Unsafe JavaScript attempt to initiate navigation for frame with origin 'https://docs.google.com' from frame with URL 'https://n-***************-0lu-script.googleusercontent.com/userCodeAppPanel'. The frame attempting navigation of the top-level window is sandboxed, but the flag of 'allow-top-navigation' or 'allow-top-navigation-by-user-activation' is not set. – Martyn Bowis Feb 18 '20 at 23:39

Solved it here: https://issuetracker.google.com/issues/150840775

So, please consider this closed.
